请参考图1,其示出了本公开实施例提供的一种无线通信系统的结构示意图。如图1所示,无线通信系统是基于蜂窝移动通信技术的通信系统,该无线通信系统可以包括:若干个UE11以及若干个接入设备12。
其中,UE11可以是指向用户提供语音和/或数据连通性的设备。UE11可以经无线接入网(Radio Access Network,RAN)与一个或多个核心网进行通信,UE11可以是物联网UE,如传感器设备、移动电话(或称为“蜂窝”电话)和具有物联网UE的计算机,例如,可以是固定式、便携式、袖珍式、手持式、计算机内置的或者车载的装置。例如,站(Station,STA)、订户单元(subscriber unit)、订户站(subscriber station)、移动站(mobile station)、移动台(mobile)、远程站(remote station)、接入点、远程UE(remote terminal)、接入UE(access terminal)、用户装置(user terminal)、用户代理(user agent)、用户设备(user device)、或用户UE(user equipment,UE)。或者,UE11也可以是无人飞行器的设备。或者,UE11也可以是车载设备,比如,可以是具有无线通信功能的行车电脑,或者是外接行车电脑的无线通信设备。或者,UE11也可以是路边设备,比如,可以是具有无线通信功能的路灯、信号灯或者其它路边设备等。
接入设备12可以是无线通信系统中的网络侧设备。其中,该无线通信系统可以是第四代移动通信技术(the 4th generation mobile communication,4G)系统,又称长期演进(Long Term Evolution,LTE)系统;或者,该无线通信系统也可以是5G系统,又称新空口(new radio,NR)系统或5G NR系统。或者,该无线通信系统也可以是5G系统的再下一代系统。其中,5G系统中的接入网可以称为NG-RAN(New Generation-Radio Access Network,新一代无线接入网)。或者,MTC系统。
其中,接入设备12可以是4G系统中采用的演进型接入设备(eNB)。或者,接入设备12也可以是5G系统中采用集中分布式架构的接入设备(gNB)。当接入设备12采用集中分布式架构时,通常包括集中单元(central unit,CU)和至少两个分布单元(distributed unit,DU)。集中单元中设置有分组数据汇聚协议(Packet Data Convergence Protocol,PDCP)层、无线链路层控制协议(Radio Link Control,RLC)层、媒体访问控制(Media Access Control,MAC)层的协议栈;分布单元中设置有物理(Physical,PHY)层协议栈,本公开实施例对接入设备12的具体实现方式不加以限定。
接入设备12和UE11之间可以通过无线空口建立无线连接。在不同的实施方式中,该无线空口是基于第四代移动通信网络技术(4G)标准的无线空口;或者,该无线空口是基于第五代移动通信网络技术(5G)标准的无线空口,比如该无线空口是新空口;或者,该无线空口也可以是基于5G的更下一代移动通信网络技术标准的无线空口。
在一些实施例中,UE11之间还可以建立E2E(End to End,端到端)连接。比如车联网通信(vehicle to everything,V2X)中的V2V(vehicle to vehicle,车对车)通信、V2I(vehicle to Infrastructure,车对路边设备)通信和V2P(vehicle to pedestrian,车对人)通信等场景。
在一些实施例中,上述无线通信系统还可以包含网络管理设备13。
若干个接入设备12分别与网络管理设备13相连。其中,网络管理设备13可以是无线通信系统中的核心网设备,比如,该网络管理设备13可以是演进的数据分组核心网(Evolved Packet Core,EPC)中的移动性管理实体(Mobility Management Entity,MME)。或者,该网络管理设备也可以是其它的核心网设备,比如服务网关(Serving GateWay,SGW)、公用数据网网关(Public Data Network GateWay,PGW)、策略与计费规则功能单元(Policy and Charging Rules Function,PCRF)或者归属签约用户服务器(Home Subscriber Server,HSS)等。对于网络管理设备13的实现形态,本公开实施例不做限定。
本公开实施例提供的无线传感方法,可以应用于如图2所示的系统架构中,但是不局限于图2所示的系统架构。
发起者:根据应用需求触发传感服务,可以在3GPP对应的通信系统之外。
消费者:接收和消费传感服务的输出数据;该数据可包括:传感数据和/或根据传感数据生成的传感结果;
传感功能(Sensing Function,SF):该传感功能可为网络侧的任意功能实体,属于网络功能的一种,是根据发起者提供的信息/要求,确定传感模型,确定发射者(或称发射器或者发射机)和接收者(或称接收器或者接收机)的传感参数。
发射者:根据从SF接收到的传感参数并发射传感信号;
接收者:根据从SF接收到的传感参数接收反射信号,如果有传感数据,则将传感数据发送给处理器;
处理者:处理从接收者处接收到的传感数据并输出传感结果。值的注意的是:此处的处理者可包括一个或多个处理器,或者一个或多个处理装置。
值的注意的是:一个设备可以充当发起者、消费者、发射者、接收者和处理者这些角色中的一个或多个角色。
如图3所示,本公开实施例提供一种传感服务提供方法,其中,被AMF执行,所述方法包括:
S110:接收传感请求,其中,所述传感请求至少包括:UE标识和基站标识;
S120:确定目标SF;
S130:向所述目标SF发送所述传感请求。
该传感请求可来自传感服务的发起者或者消费者,具体可为来自UE或者传感服务的应用功能(Application Function,AF)。
该传感请求可来自请求传感服务的UE或者可以为其他UE提供传感服务的UE。
该传感请求携带的UE标识和基站标识均可为:提供传感服务的候选UE和候选基站标识。
所述UE标识包括但不限于:UE的国际移动设备识别码(International Mobile Equipment Identity,IMEI)和/或国际移动用户识别码(International Mobile Subscriber Identity,IMSI)或者临时移动用户识别码(Temporary Mobile Subscriber Identity,TMSI)。
所述基站标识可为基站的设备标识和/或基站所形成小区的小区标识。该小区标识包括但不限于:物理小区标识(Physical Cell Identification,PCI)。
若接收到一个传感请求,携带有UE标识和基站标识的传感请求之后,目标SF可默认为:当前传感请求优先请求使用基站和UE共同提供传感服务,因此会优先确定出适用于基站和UE共同提供传感服务的传感参数。
在本公开实施例中,AMF自身不参与传感参数的提供,会在接收到传感请求之后,会确定出目标SF,并将该传感请求发送给目标SF。
AMF接收到传感请求将确定提供传感参数的目标SF,然后将包含UE标识和基站标识的传感请求发送给目标SF,如此,目标SF将根据该传感请求携带的UE标识和基站标识,确定将基站和UE引入到传感服务的提供系统中,提供传感服务。
图4所示为基于雷达波的无线传感。
发射者发射雷达信号,雷达信号在传输的过程中遭遇到障碍物时会被反射或者吸收,被反射的雷达波会被接收者接收到,接收者基于接收的雷达波,可以实现雷达测距、雷达探测等功能,从而知晓障碍物所在的而为之、体积和/或形状等参数。
发射者发射雷达信号,雷达信号在传输的过程中遭遇到障碍物时会被反射或者吸收,被反射的雷达波会被接收者接收到,接收者基于接收的雷达波,可以实现雷达测距、雷达探测等功能,从而知晓障碍物所在的而为之、体积和/或形状等参数。
如图4所示,根据雷达波的收发时间,可以确定出传感目标与发射者和接收者所在设备之间的距离,以及相对于发射者和接收者所在设备之间的方向等信息。
示例性地,本公开实施例中所述传感服务的具体用途包括但不限于以下至少之一:
检测飞行器;
障碍物检测;
导弹发射;
飞船导航;
海上导航;
自动驾驶;
天气检测;
地形探测等。
AMF作为对UE接入和移动管理的功能,可以根据需要,选择合适为UE提供传感参数的SF。
该传感请求可为任意请求提供传感参数和/或传感服务的任意请求。该传感请求可为非接入层(NAS)消息和/或接入层(AS)消息。
所述SF可以为网络侧任意功能实体,具体如SF可以作为核心网和/或接入网的网元之一。
示例性地,该传感功能包括但不限于以下至少之一:
接入功能(Access Function,AF);
策略控制功能(Policy control Function,PCF);
或其他网络功能(Network Function,NF)。
当然以上仅仅举例,具体实现时不局限于此。在一些实施例中,所述SF可为独立于AF、AMF或者PCF的其他网元。
在一个实施例中,所述传感请求还包括:
传感模型信息,所述传感模型信息指示:提供传感服务使用的传感模型;
其中,所述传感模型为:UE发射传感信号,且基站接收UE发射的所述传感信号的反射信号;或者,基站发射传感信号,且UE接收基站发射的传感信号的反射信号。
本公开实施例中该传感请求携带的传感模型指示的传感模型,可以指示利用基站和UE中的一个作为传感信号的发射者,另一个作为传感信号所形成的反射信号的接收者。
图5所示为:基站作为传感信号的发射者、UE作为传感信号的接收者。反射物体(Reflection Object,RO)被传感信号作用之后,会反射该传感信号,传感信号的传播方向等发生改变,从而会产生被UE接收到的反射信号。
在具体实现时,发射传感信号的还可以是UE,而接收反射信号的是UE。
在一些实施例中,提供传感服务的传感模型可包括如下至少之一:
基站作为发射者和接收者的第一传感模型;
用户设备UE作为发射者和接收者的第二传感模型;
基站作为发射者且UE作为接收者的第三传感模型;
UE作为接收者且基站作为发射者的第四传感模型;
除所述第一传感模型至所述第四传感模型以外的第五传感模型。
若基站作为发射者和接收者,则相当于传感服务完全由移动通信网络系统的网元来执行。
在第一传感模型中,还可能涉及处理者,该处理者可为基站或者基站附近的计算设备或者是UE等。该计算设备包括但不限于边缘计算设备或者位于远程连接的计算设备。
UE作为发射者接收者的第二传感模型,则至少传感信号的发射和接收都是由一个或多个UE来执行。此时第二传感模型作为发射者的UE和作为接收者的UE可以相同的UE,也可以是不同的UE。在本公开实施例中,发送所述传感请求的UE可为作为发射者和接收者的至少其中之一。示例性地,该UE可以同时作为发射者和接收者。
在第二传感模型中,还可能涉及处理者,该处理者可以是UE或者基站或者与基站连接的计算设备。该计算设备包括但不限于边缘计算设备或者位于远程连接的计算设备。
第三传感模型是涉及基站和UE,基站作为发射者且UE作为接收者。在这种情况下,基站作为发射者可以向多个UE发射传感信号,从而实现一对多的传感服务提供,从而向不同的UE提供传感服务。
在第三传感模型中,还可能涉及处理者,该处理者可以是UE或者基站或者与基站连接的计算设备。该计算设备包括但不限于边缘计算设备或者位于远程连接的计算设备。
第四传感模型是涉及基站和UE,基站作为接收者且UE作为发射者。在这种情况下,基站作为发射者,由于其自身强大的接收能力,可以一次性接收多个UE发射的传感信号,从而实现一对多的传感服务提供,从而向不同的UE提供传感服务。
在第四传感模型中,还可能涉及处理者,该处理者可以是UE或者基站或者与基站连接的计算设备。该计算设备包括但不限于边缘计算设备或者位于远程连接的计算设备。
第五传感模型可为前述第一传感模型至第四传感模型以外的任意传感模型。
示例性地,第五传感模型可包括:涉及多个发射者和/或多个接收者的传感模型,且多个发射者的类型可以不同,例如,发射者既包括UE,也可以包括基站;和/或,接收者既可以包括UE也可以包括基站。当然作为发射者和接收者的设备包括但不限于基站和/或UE。在具体实现时,作为发射者和/或接收者的设备,还可以是能够与基站或者UE建立连接的路边设备。例如,路旁具有无线信号收发能力的监控设备等。该监控设备包括但不限于以图像采集为主的视觉监控设备等。
本公开实施例中所述传感请求携带有UE标识和基站标识,即为传感服务的发起者期望优先使用第三传感模型和第四传感模型。
在一些实施例中,本公开实施例中的UE标识和基站标识在传感请求中的排序或者所使用的字段,可以用于供目标SF,传感请求的发送者所期望使用的传感模型是第三传感模型还是第四传感模型。例如,所述传感请求中可以设置发射者字段和接收者字段,此时就可以根据UE标识和基站标识被携带在哪个字段来确定。再例如,UE和网络设备之间可以预先协商在传感请求中标识排序靠前的为发射者或者接收者,另一个则作为接收者或者发射者,此时可以根据UE标识和基站标识在传感请求中的排序来确定传感请求的发送者最期望使用的传感模型。
在另一些实施例中,所述传感请求直接携带传感模型信息,该传感模型信息可以是传感模型的标识,如此,可以直接根据传感模型的标识确定出传感请求的发起者期望使用的传感模型。
在一个实施例中,所述传感请求可携带一个或多个传感模型的传感模型信息,被携带在所述传感请求中的传感模型信息都可为传感请求的发送者所期望使用的传感模型,如此当其中一个传感模型无法使用时,AMF或者SF等网络侧网元还有其他传感请求的发送者所期望使用的传感模型,从而提升传感服务的服务质量。
在一些实施例中,若由于网络侧状况等各种信息,无法使用传感请求所指示的传感模型提供传感服务时,AMF或者SF等网络侧网元还可以根据当前网络状况及传感请求携带的传感目标的目标信息等,确定出可以针对该传感目标进行传感的其他传感模型,从而实现传感服务的提供。
所述传感请求可以上述信息中的一种或者多种,当然也可以不携带上述信息,仅仅携带传感服务的请求信令即可。
在一些实施例中,所述请求参数还可包括:消费者信息,该消费者信息指示传感服务的消费者。传感服务的传感结果,将被发送给消费者,供消费者使用。
在一个实施例中,发起者和消费者可以相同或者不同。
示例性地,在传感请求中设置有两个必选字段和一个或多个可选字段。该两个必选字段可以分 别携带发起者信息和消费者信息,而其他可选字段可以携带前述传感目标信息等各种信息。当然此处仅仅是举例,具体实现时不局限于此。
通过上述请求参数中的一种或多种的携带,方便SF确定出适合当前场景的传感参数,从而确保传感服务的服务质量。
示例性地,所述传感目标信息包括以下至少之一:
所述传感目标的面积;
所述传感目标的区域信息;
所述传感目标的位置;
所述传感目标的体积;
所述传感目标的速度。
在一些实施例中,不同面积和/或体积的传感目标,可以用于确定发射者发送传感信号的视角和/或功率等参数。
所述传感目标的区域信息可指示传感目标当前所在区域,可方便确定传感服务区域。
所述传感目标的位置,可以用于确定执行者,例如,就近选择合适的执行者来执行该传感服务。
传感目标的速度可能会对传感服务的成功提供有影响,例如,高速运动的物体,则对传感服务中发射者的发射功率有要求。另外,还可以由于传感目标的运动产生多普勒效应,此时提供传感服务的处理者的处理能力有一定的要求。
在一些实施例中,所述传感目标信息不局限于上述面积、位置、体积和/或速度,还可以传感目标的类型。例如,传感目标是否运动,可以分为静态传感目标和动态传感目标。根据传感目标是否是活体,可以分为活体目标和非活体目标。若针对活体目标,可能需要考虑雷达光斑对活体的影响活体的负面影响等。
总之,发起者可以通过传感请求将请求参数的发送,SF会根据请求参数和/或请求参数以外的网络信息等可以确定传感参数,执行者基于传感参数能够提供安全和服务质量得到保证的传感服务。
在一些实施例中,所述传感请求中的请求参数中一个或多个,还可以用于所述AMF确定目标SF。例如,AMF根据传感请求中请求参数指示的UE所在位置和/或传感目标所在位置,选择UE所在位置和/或传感目标所在位置对应的传感区域内的SF作为所述目标服务。又例如,AMF根据传感请求中请求参数指示的传感服务的QoS,选择能够提供达到所述QoS信息指示的QoS的SF作为所述目标SF。当然以上仅仅是举例。
在一些实施例中,如图6所示,所述方法还包括:
S111:确定网络是否支持提供请求的传感服务;
所述S120可包括:如果支持请求的所述传感功能,确定目标传感功能SF。
在一些实施例中,网络不支持提供传感服务,则确定不能响应该传感请求,即将拒绝响应该传感请求。若拒绝该传感请求可以向UE发送请求拒绝消息,该请求拒绝消息可以携带指示网络不支持的原因值。UE接收到指示网络不支持原因值的请求拒绝消息,将不会重复发送所述传感请求。
在另一些实施例中,网络支持提供传感服务,可以直接确定响应传感请求,或者进一步根据传感请求携带的请求参数等其他参考参数,确定是否响应所述传感请求。
在一个实施例中,所述确定网络是否支持提供请求的传感服务,包括以下至少之一:
确定所述网络是否支持所述传感服务的提供;
确定所述网络侧对所述传感服务提供的验证是否通过。
该传感服务的提供的验证包括但不限于:权限验证和/或隐私安全验证。
